I incorporate the knowledge I’ve gained from my training and support you in identifying where your anxiety, stress, or low self esteem stems from.
Your struggles do not define you and it’s okay to not be okay. Coping mechanisms that previously worked no longer work. We may need to slow down, sit with our struggles, like our low self esteem, our perfectionism, or our anxiety, and explore how we feel inside and what is coming to the surface. Many of us avoid our struggles as a means to cope but that doesn’t solve them. Rather they continue to appear and we react in situations when we least expect it by getting angry or shutting down. By learning to sit with our emotions, without feeling overwhelmed or stuck, we can process our struggles, and take steps to move forward.

You’re probably hoping to reduce your stress & feel better about life.
You’ve probably spent a lot of time trying to fix things on your own, but maybe you’ve reached a point of exhaustion. You might be feeling overwhelmed, self-critical, & alone. You don’t know what else you can do to make yourself feel better, or how to keep up with the challenges you’re facing.

I help millennials navigate the stresses of adult life.
Hello, I'm your online therapist! I largely work with millennials— go-getters, people pleasers, and anxious types. You might have noticed that the "roadmap of life" doesn't really apply these days, so you're out there navigating uncharted territory with your own compass and notebook. I can help. My ideal clients are people who want to overcome anxiety, manage stress, learn to set strong boundaries, improve their relationships, and reclaim their self-worth to build confidence. If any of this resonates with you (regardless of generation), you might want to work with me.

I believe we can all learn from mistakes. Connection. I believe being connected to others is healing from many past hurts and is protective against future stress. Equality.

I see many kinds of people with concerns ranging from anxiety and depression, to stress, trauma, and loss, to relationships and personal growth.
The people I work with tend to be caring, open-minded, and high-functioning folks who at times march to the beat of their own drummer or have a unique perspective, who may struggle at times even if they don't show it, and who like to ‘get to the heart of things’ in their relationships, in their work, and in their engagement with life. Many things in this life can hurt us, our habitual defences against pain can muddle things, and sometimes we just get lost. Whether you are in the process of healing yourself, fostering deeper connection with others, or pursuing a life well-lived, I am here to support you.

Together we could: explore your current circumstances, discover the path to your ideal future, learn how to overcome challenges such as burnout and stress, identify strategies to develop leadership and communication skills, and create healthy and sustainable systems that support your goals.
Do you find yourself stuck? Not knowing where to go, or even how you got to where you are? Or is it the opposite? You know exactly what you want in life, it's just not working? I recognize that each person approaches life transitions & change with a unique set of values, beliefs, and past experiences. It’s also true that each person's experience is different, and can come with a variety of thoughts, feelings, and consequences that vary from person to person. My priority as your counsellor will be to create a safe space where you can explore your options, figure out how to chart your future course, and build the life you want.

I work with many individuals on their journey to recovery from: Stress, Burnout, Addiction, Self-Exploration, Drug/Alcohol Education for Families, and Work-place Diversity Workshops.
My philosophy for counselling is rooted in finding connection in communities, safety from within, and discovery of what makes you feel passionate about a life worth living. I have always been a strong proponent for human development and diversity, and I'm curious by nature. Presently I work as an addictions counsellor, am an advocate for ending homelessness, and work with organizations to provide safety to our most vulnerable groups. Ive been to therapy, I struggled with addiction in the past... we all have had an adversity to overcome, and I can relate.
